strange that they were able to settle after suspension.The problem is most of the front office staff dont really know much about back office operations like settlement and crest.probably better to speak direct to compliance officer for a definitive answer.I have been told all sorts by my broker including that LGB were in administration.
I dont hold much hope out for getting the contract anulled as the contract was with the broker and not the MM.
Should be able to claim the few hundred pounds interest while the money is sat in a crest account though.If you dont get anything else back at least the interest should pay for a bottle of bells and a decent whore.
